GitHub Push not working since yesterday?
Answered
Hello,
i was using the push-function with my github-account for a long time - but since yesterday suddenly it is not working anyomre and i allways get an Error "Push failes - The requested URL returned error: 403"
Tried to establish a new token from github in the settings - but it is still not working...
(tried the push with other program github desktop and there the push is working)
Any ideas what could be the reason?

Does push from the command line work?
The 403 - Forbidden error could have various reasons - from using incorrect URL to account permissions (e.g. if you have several GitHub accounts, and trying to use one instead of another). Check the Console tab of the Git (Version Control in earlier versions) toolwindow to see more details about the error.
The following commits are existing (did this in the idea environment) - push was not possible

When i tried a push from comand line i get the same error:
C:\Users\Polzi\Documents\GitHub\Morpheus-Diverse-Infos>git push -u origin master
remote: Permission to Rapid1898-code/Morpheus-Diverse-Infos.git denied to Rapid1898.
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/Rapid1898-code/Morpheus-Diverse-Infos.git/': The requested URL returned error: 403
(when i cklick the link everything works fine - i get to the page)
When i push it from GitHub Desktop everything works fine...
The issue appears to be on the git client-side.
Probably, you use some credential helper that saved incorrect authentication data. It should be overridden in IntelliJ by default, but probably it is enabled in your setup?
Please make sure the Use credential helper option in Settings | Version Control | Git is DISABLED
Yes - this really seems to was the problem -
After disabling the option an once gain trying to push some changes to the master - i now get (again) the Infromation to log on to github - so i generated a new token on github and used them in Intellij Idea.
After that the push worked again.
Thank you very much!
